  I live in music, in poetry, and in the life reflective. I seek intellectual boldness in man, I worship mental swiftness in women. I have no love for lawyers, priests, schoolmasters, or any dogmatic men. I am with poor against rich, labour against employer, women against men; I fight beside all strikers, mutineers, and rebels. I welcome foes; I desire criticism. I loathe prejudice, either social or national; I repudiate all claims. I demand freedom of action and leisure for reflection. Facing Death, I would say: 'I have tasted all, tried all, dared all, suffered all, and I repent nothing.' |
